Character Build: The Poisoner

12347798294?profile=RESIZE_584x

The Poisoner

When someone brings up the subject of poison in Skyrim, they’re usually talking about the harmful concoctions that you can make via Alchemy. The reality is, however, that there is a wide variety of options for poison damage in Skyrim. T

Character Build: The Rurouni

A mysterious figure from the Alik’r Desert, the Rurouni claims obscurity but is all too well known to the Thalmor. During the Great War, he was a swordsman of unparalleled skill known as Battōsai the Merslayer, responsible for the deaths of several A

Character Build: The Renrijra Krin Agent

The Khajiit mind is not engineered for self-reflection. We simply do what we do, and let the world be damned. To put into words and rationalize our philosophy is foreign, and I cannot guarantee that even after reading this, you will understand us. Gr

Character Build: The Feral One

The Feral One

“Some can't separate the animal from themselves. Go feral.” – Offhand comment by Aela that inspired this build.

Recall the first time you become a werewolf during the Companions questline, where you are thrown out onto the streets of W

Character Build: The Heister

The Heister

I first got the idea for this build when I was watching the remake of “The Italian Job.” I wanted to create a build where every trek into a dungeon felt like a grand heist, sneaking past your opponents to get the treasure at the end; the

Character Build: The Dagger Duelist

12347811878?profile=RESIZE_710x

The Dagger Duelist

Plenty of builds utilize daggers, but almost all the ones that do either use them for sneak attacks with Assassin’s Blade or dual-wield them. The Dagger Duelist does neither, opting for skillful usage of a single dagger in melee c

Character Build: The Vigilant of Stendarr

12347813262?profile=RESIZE_710x

Stendarr's Mercy be upon you, for the Vigil has none to spare!

The Vigilant of Stendarr

It’s no secret that the Vigil of Stendarr is an incredibly incompetent faction. Vigilant Tyranus gets killed during House of Horrors, Vigilant Tolan gets killed

Character Build: The Knight of Diagna

The Knight of Diagna

The Order of Diagna is one of the many knightly orders in the Hammerfell area, and was chiefly involved in the invasion of Orsinium, which lasted for thirty years. The leader of the order, Gaiden Shinji, was killed during the si

FO4 Build: The Atom Cat

12347761884?profile=RESIZE_710x

The Atom Cat

As they’re rarely seen outside of their remotely located garage it’s easy to play through Fallout 4 and never run into the Atom Cats, which would be a shame as they’re a great little addition to the game. While this isn’t the first refe

FO4 Build: The Assassin

12347759870?profile=RESIZE_710x

The Assassin

Sure, this guy was in the military before the bombs fell, but he was no ordinary soldier. The Assassin is, simply put, my attempt at creating the ultimate stealth build, one that’s unmatched in its ability to both hide and strike from t

FO4 Build: The Lawbringer

12347758672?profile=RESIZE_930x

The Lawbringer

During my very first playthrough, after killing Kellogg and looting his corpse, I almost immediately started messing around with his gun. It was my first time playing around with a revolver in Fallout 4 and found even the simple act o

FO4 Build: The Disciple

12347757864?profile=RESIZE_930x

The Disciple

Before the Nuka-World DLC was released I was working on a stealthy melee build using Pickman’s Blade. After its release, I ended up reworking the idea because it introduced the perfect faction for stealthy melee builds like my own: The

FO4 Build: The General

12347745864?profile=RESIZE_930x

The General

This is the last in my main quest faction build series of sorts that I’ve been working on, with my first three builds being the other parts of it. As my first playthrough of the game was also with the Minutemen I wanted to wait until I p

FO4 Build: The Director

12347741275?profile=RESIZE_930x

The Director

The name of the build comes from the title given to the leader of the Institute, a title which can be passed on to the player if they choose to side with them. As befitting the title, our character does whatever he can to lead the Insti

FO4 Build: The Sentinel

12347739256?profile=RESIZE_930x

The Sentinel


Heavy metal music for a heavy metal build.

The name of this build comes from the highest rank the player can achieve in Brotherhood of Steel in Fallout 4. It's all about big guns, power armor, and more or less VATS-less combat. While

FO4 Build: The Heavy

12347733886?profile=RESIZE_710x

The Heavy

For my first Fallout 4 build I thought I’d take a look at one of the game’s primary factions, the Railroad. A heavy is someone who takes the fight directly to the Institute and any other groups that might threaten the Railroad’s operations

FNV Build: The Commando

The Commando

12347732856?profile=RESIZE_710x

Equipment

The Commando’s playstyle is best exemplified by the two guns he uses, so I’m going to do something a little unusual and start talking about equipment first. His primary weapon is the All-American, used for mid to long range co

Character Build: The Thrall of Vile

Once there lived an elf who sought to obtain power by any means necessary. He dealt with various lesser daedra until the day he summoned one of the fearsome Daedric Princes, Clavicus Vile, known for granting power through ritual invocations and pacts

Character Build: The Greybeard

12347830488?profile=RESIZE_584x

The Greybeard

The power of the Voice is capable of utilizing the effects of several different skills (Destruction’s fire damage, Illusion’s fear, etc) to the point where it could be relied upon as its own skillset if it weren’t for the limitations o
